Where is Brad Pitt? He has been strangely silent during the scandal that has rocked his mother during the past week. Jane Pitt has been receiving death threats for simply stating her pro-Romney opinion in a local paper, and Brad Pitt has done — and said — nothing to defend her.

In case you missed it, Jane Pitt wrote a response that was printed in her local paper, Missouri’s Springfield News-Leader. Jane was responding to a piece that encouraged Christians not to vote for Romney because Romney is a Mormon. Jane Pitt countered by encouraging Christians to reflect upon Romney’s positive character traits, to take time to pray before voting and to consider the agenda of Obama — a man “who sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for years, did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer, and is a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage.”

Jane’s letter to the editor shocked Hollywood and the liberal community like a 9.5 earthquake. How dare a Hollywood icon’s mother rock the boat by expressing her opinion when it differs from theirs! Everyone knows that this is simply not allowed in Hollywood.

The tsunami that followed drowned Brad’s mother in obscenities and death-threat tweets such as these compiled on Twitchy.com:

“F*** you, Brad Pitt’s mom. The gay community made your kid a star, you whacko.”

So where is Brad Pitt? Why hasn’t he defended his mother? His mother, reportedly shell-shocked and frightened, has been intimidated into silence. Chalk up another win for liberal agenda 101 — tyrannize and intimidate, slander, and sequester any person with an opposing point of view into silence. Does tyranny ring a bell?

For all we know Brad wrote some of the threats. He is, after all, a Hollywood liberal, and they usually have stories about how their parents abused them. Now Janine, I respect your desire to protect Brad’s courageous mom, but having conservatives come out in support of her is not a great idea. That will just get the Hollywood crazies more crazy with anger. These are not rational people.

Accusing those with whom we may disagree of being cowards is problematic. If Pitt feels no responsibility to speak out for his mother’s freedom of speech, so be it. She, the mom, obviously has ‘bigger ones’ tha Brad Pitt has. I suspect that Jennifer Anniston would agree.

Let’s all remember that the coward here is Brad Pitt. If my mother was getting death threats I’d be waiting in her living room with my 50 cal Desert Eagle. And this socialist punk can’t even come to her aid verbally?

I agree Kent – that has to be the cowardly statement of the day. There are times to shut up and back away from evil so that you can live to fight another day. But being afraid you’re going to make the bully more mad just means you’re a coward and easy to intimidate.

Let them get angry if they will. First, most of the time, bullies back down. Second, they need to be dispatched or they keep escalating and doing the same thing. Third, you teach anyone watching you that there’s nothing worth defending. You and Brad would get along great.

But we want them crazy with anger. That’s when they forget to hide their true agenda behind a mask of moderate reason and let their true feelings out. It’s when they are angry or so confident that they hold the power that they show to the world how truly twisted and hateful their real plans are. Most conservative victories have come right after the progressives overstep and reveal their true natures at which point the real moderates recoil in horror and support conservatism in response and self defense.

The only way to fight Hollywood…is to NOT support their movies, products etc
HOWEVER,…WE WILL, WE WILL GO TO THEIR MOVIES, BUY THEIR PERFUME, CLOTHES ET…
SO..we are every bit as much to blame as they are…We elevate them to the status of gods….

Just exactly why the country is in trouble…lack of conservatives to stand up for their principles. Freedom of speech is for everyone, not just liberals who try to intimidate the rest of us. I was in the Marines and fought these liberals from trying to silence me then, and here we are 50+ years later, and the liberals have continued to use intimidation, riots, threats,coersion,and lies. Stand up and take them on and stop being a timid American.

Why? We all know that no one gets into the top tier of American narcissism without already having performed repugnant and detestable things to get there. The prettier and the dumber the performer, the nastier the acts exacted.
Who is Larry Sinclair?

“Jane’s letter to the editor shocked Hollywood and the liberal community like a 9.5 earthquake. How dare a Hollywood icon’s mother rock the boat by expressing her opinion when it differs from theirs! Everyone knows that this is simply not allowed in Hollywood.”

Which is why more and more people just ignore what the children who play in Hollywood have to say. Obama may have them in his pocket, but clear-thinking Americans know that the far left in Hollywood are speaking for an ever shrinking group of people in this country. If Obama loses badly in November, it will finally prove that Hollywood’s influence on this country is no longer that strong. People will actually form their own opinions and do what they think is best for this country. They won’t simply follow what some far-left hack in Hollywood has to say. Go figure.

What a coward B. Pitt is. But then again, self-absorbed people don’t react bravely. Ever. They calculate how things will affect them and their precious image. Human egos have no bounds and they have the potential to reach levels of wicked absurdity.

That’s the difference between the movies and real life that some of these Hollwood stars don’t understand. Pitt doesn’t have to take out a house full of terrorists armed only with a Swiss Army knife. All he needs to do is make a public statement defending his own mother against the left-wing lynch mob. It’s easy to be a Hollywood tough-guy hero. It takes real courage to be a decent human being in the real world.

The lesson that needs to be taught is that Liberals eat their own. “Hey there, Lefty. Remember Juan Williams? Remember Jane PItt? You can be universally loved and adored by the left until you commit one tiny faux pax and then your friends in the so-called party of tolerance will crucify you.”

I wish they had eaten Juan Williams…egotistical, self concerned axxhole that he is. He defends obama, no matter the subject..but I feel gov John H. Sununu slapped juan around very well..Juan gets so indigent..it’s funny, i hatehatehate to watch a show he’s on..

I agree with Anon. Juan Williams had a legit gripe when NPR fired him for his opinions about travel with muslims (my view is to stick a microscope up their arse). But now that Fox pays him a million bucks–he is shoveling for the liberal man. Kind of a Stepinfetchit minstrel for the left. The Juan that appears on the Five, Brett, Oreilly or Sean, is not the same guy that guest hosts for Bill on occasion. On those days,you would think he is to the right of Attilla the Hun. What a jerk. Makes me puke that I had sympathy for him during his NPR trials and tribulation times.
Also–while we’re on the subject of Jerks–what about that Lame Sheppard Smith. Jerk gets 10M/year, and howls about the RICH and the CHILD SHOOTER ZIMMERMAN. What an A-hole extraordinaire.

ahhhh….shephard Smith…obviously a product of anal sex ..was that harsh?..oh…:) At first i sorta liked him…then he had his little lacey hissie fits and border hysterics over things. I think most of his “opinions” are left leaning. AND juan williams is awful…i dont’ like the man, period.
annonymous is name box because most of the time i forget to put my name…

He doesn’t have the spine to speak out and defend his mother. Because it goes against a basic liberal arrogance..”I have the RIGHT to voice MY opinion, but unless you agree with me, YOU DON’T”….So typical of the left…ahhh the tolerant ones!!!!

It is very shocking Brad Pitt has not jumped to the defense of his mother. Surely, that would be the natural, normal thing to do? Angelina’s dad, Jon Voight, of excellent character, has spoken out in her defense. Thank you, Mr. Voight. And Jane Pitt, you are beautiful on the inside as well as on the outside.

Where have all the Men who defend Lady Liberty gone? Time to make a Stand. Defend your Mother, your Children, your Father, your wife, your Country and your Freedom. I appreciate our Service Men but what about our Civil duty, our Godly duty and our Family duty? As of yet our Flag flys for Freedom but at this rate there will be an end to that and our Country as we know it. Janine, you are an American She Hero. God bless you and God bless America. November will be a great time to start standing up for our Freedoms; if not now!

Yeah, but he’s already got all he could ever need. My guess is that girlfriend Angelina got out the stern Tombraider look and pointy finger and told him he was NOT to have any part of that or he wasn’t getting anymore of this.

Being the amiable but not overly bright coward that he is, he probably feels real bad. But pretending to be a man on TV isn’t quite like being a man in real life.

How sick is that not standing up for your Mother. Their sick in the brain from greatness of themselves. Where their is no seance of God their is no moral seance on anything. You don’t have to be a believer to have morals, but they are all laid out in the Word. Our Constitution is founded on the principals of that Word. It always comes back to God. Thank you Mrs Pitt and thank you again Janine.

The present day liberals have become like Muslims – either you follow our religion(view point) or we will kill you!! No wonder Muslims and liberals get along very well. We have to fight both of these oppressors!

Everyone complains about Hollywood and liberals…yet we go to their movies, buy their clothes, aftershave whatever…find out who made the product, who is starring in or producing the movie..a liberal speaking out against america??? DON’T GO!! SIMPLY DON’T GO, DON’T BUY.
Conservatives outnumber liberals…but we would never know it…

I would hope that none of those threats come from CHRISTIANS, because a CHRISTIAN should not be writing those. Unfortunately, those that call themselves such are probably the ones writing them, especially in the “Bible Belt”. While I do not like Mormonism / LDS beliefs, someone has to be voted in. I will not, and did not, vote for Obama. So again, unfortunately, it comes down to the lesser of two evils.

I am a Christian. I do not believe many of the things that the Mormons do. That does not make them evil. Just different. In fact, they love country, are pro-life and pro-family. All good things.

The thing that is pure evil is Barack Hussein Obama. This man is the anti-christ that has come to destroy America and everything that we believe in. He is a true narcissist. I know, I was married to one. They will promise you everything to get what they want but you will never get your part of the bargain. They care nothing about what their actions do to other people.

If we don’t stand up in November and rid our sacred nation of this evil we will all perish. Obamacare has a provision that allows him to create a 15 member panel, appointed by him, that can propose legislation. Unless the Congress and the president agree on an alternative it becomes law. Let that sink in for a moment. That is dictatorship.

Brad did a good job in the movie SNATCH. You know – where he played a gypsy fighter who really loved his mother. After the mob killed her, he exacted his revenge. What a great son he was (in that movie). I guess someone will have to supply a script for Brad to read before he can live up to his Hollywood persona.

Brad Pitt is a narcissist and a coward. Sound familiar? He is worried about his popularity and his peer approved ideology…all part of the self-serving artifice of being a Hollywood star. When his own mother is threatened, he is incapable of moral action, much less the heroics we’d expect from a good son.

Pitt is a self-indulgent fool who unwittingly made a choice, which was a self protective non-choice, and it will haunt him the rest of his days. i’ll NEVER go to anything movie he makes, regardless of how good it allegedly may be, as long as I live.

If Pitt was a decent human being, and a loving son, he’d be spending money and using influence to track down the scum who threatened his mother. I said “if”…

Speaking of “ifs,” what if he was presented a script where a Hollywood star’s mother was being vilely attacked and her life threatened? Would he take a role where the lead actor played the part of a self-indulgent, narcissistic, cowardly ingrate?

Brad Pitt is a typical liberal: family means nothing to them…they worship a far left Communist/Rev Wright/Frank Marshall Davis agenda…Brad Pitt would never dream of defending his mother….He is a liberal..
Remember Obama threw his mother under the bus..

Over two years ago, after I had cataract surgery, I was wearing a pair of very dark sunglasses given to me by my surgeon. A neighbor saw me on the street and said, “You look just like Brad Pitt,” I didn’t know who Brad Pitt was, but I said “Thank you.” I went home and asked my wife who Brad Pitt was. She doubled over with laughter.
I still don’t know who he is.

I’m sorry the time for the Hollywood liberals to protest that their free speech is being violbated isn’t here. I’d love to hear their testimony about why they would deny Jane Pitt her right to believe and say what she thinks.
Brad Pitt demonstrated his cowardly personality when he bought into the Angelina game….she with the zillion multi-race kids and the bizarre lifestyle..One day his pretty face will be gone and I don’t think his career will count for much.

Janine, your article is coherent, direct, true, factual, and to those of us in the horrywood business for lengthy periods of time in california, all too common and expected if not anticipated by the conservatives within studio halls. But I for one say it’s time to take back the arts and do it by the same method that we once achieved it proudly in this brave land… by God in faith and great grace! cmm-

He doesn’t need to agree with his mother but he needs to honor her by standing up for her free speech rights. He needs to say that no one deserves death threats because they don’t agree with their politics; especially his mother. Honor your mother and father so that it may be well with you and you may live long in the land. I don’t go to the movies much as it is, but his and Angie’s — who needs them.

Based on a ten min. relaxed chat with absolutely nothing at stake — walking the dog — he’s amiable but the impression is none-too-sharp. No one would accuse him of being a skilled conversationalist, finished in Switzerland. His sentences tail off in incomplete thoughts, often ‘Oh yeah, huh…’ and your first thought is Too.Much.Weed.When.Young.Yet.Another.One.What.A.Pity.

Quite possible he just decided the quickest way to help mom is to keep silent, so the tempest dies down fast. That’s not a bad idea, until perturbed homosexuals (can we say rancid faggots?) call your mom a f*****g c**t, as they have, more than a couple of times.

Its how the Nazis and the brown shirts plied their trade in the 1930s..intimidate all those who made a stand against them.The left\liberals\democrats are all under that banner and courageous people need to stand up and hit back hard if we dont then dont be surprised if it gets worse much worse.

1) He is of far-left political orientation himself, and his political orientation takes priority over family pride and the like. Hence, he sits make and lets the liberal-left verbally abuse his mother (Brad seriously lacks balls!).

2) Brad’s marriage to Angelina resulted in his steady emasculation over the years. Note that his career disappeared whereas her’s has improved. He doesn’t even look good these days. He is not aging well, whereas Angelina looks better than ever. Angelina must be some kind of psychological vampire. She is literally sucking the life-blood out of Brad.

I feel kinda sorry for the poor Brad. Once read a very spot-on quote about them famous movie stars with the swimmin’ pools like the Beverly Hillbillies theme song. I wish I could remember who it was that said it: “Fame is the beauty salon of the dead.” Yup, that’s what I’m talkin’ about! Look in their eyes. It’s really creepy. I guess “handlers” have the reins to your soul, whether a wife or people who are remoras attached to your coattails. There’s just not enough money to make fear very attractive!

Always had liked Brad Pitt. What a shame that he can’t seem to man up to defend his Momma! I think it’s ok to “agree to disagree.” That’s what used to make our country great.

It’s a mistake to refer this current Democratic controlling Party as Liberals, George Soros made sure that all the real liberals disappeared after he lost in his effort to displace George Bush’s second term. No, this group is not Liberal, Liberal’s believe in ‘freedom of choice’ I know, I was a Liberal Democrat back in the 60′s & 70′s, we support the ‘right to choose’ this group supports their party’s mandates making them way further left of a liberal.

As you have excellently stated, it’s their way (Leftist) or the highway, and death threats and intimidation are necessary tools of Communism.

Here’s a definition of Communism from the online dictionary the free dictionary.com read it and decide for yourself if I am right or not, let me know what you think.

Communism is a sociopolitical movement that aims for a classless and stateless society structured upon common ownership of the means of production, free access to articles of consumption, the end of wage labour and private property in the means of production and real estate.[1]

In Marxist theory, communism is a specific stage of historical development that inevitably emerges from the development of the productive forces that leads to a superabundance of material wealth, allowing for distribution based on need and social relations based on freely-associated individuals.[2][3]

The exact definition of communism varies, and it is often mistakenly used interchangeably with socialism; however, Marxist theory contends that socialism is just a transitional stage on the way to communism. Marxist-Leninists and Leninists revised this theory by introducing the notion of a vanguard party to lead the proletarian revolution and to hold all political power after the revolution in a transitional stage between capitalism and socialism. Some communists, such as council communists and non-Marxist libertarian communists and anarcho-communists, oppose the idea of a vanguard party and transition stage and advocate for the construction of full communism to begin immediately upon the abolition of capitalism.

In the modern lexicon of what many sociologists and political commentators refer to as the “political mainstream”, communism is often used to refer to the policies of states run by Communist parties, regardless of the practical content of the actual economic system they may preside over. Examples of this can include the policies the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, where the economic system incorporates “doi moi”, the People’s Republic of China, where the economic system incorporates “Socialism with Chinese Characteristics”, the economic system of the Soviet Union, which was described as “State capitalist” by Vladimir Lenin.[4]

Agreed, Paul. Democrats can be mildly left Liberals at most but essentially are in the capitalist mainstream, whether right wingers want to recognize this or not. Good post although I would point out that threats and intimidation are in the arsenal of any extremist point of view and not monopolized by the left. But my main point of posting here is -as a leftie- to say shame on Brad Pitt for not defending his mom regardless of her opposing point of view. Pretty disgusting. This goes more to being a man than any political philosophy and I agree with most of the posts here that crap on him [despite their tangenital tendencies to attack the left so vehemently, as misguiding as those comments are]. And finally, Janine I was a big NE fan so just want to say loved your work….

one of the reasons ordinary citizen Conservatives don’t tend to aggressively broadcast their dissent with the Left is that the Left actually will – and does – set fire to your house, hack your computer, destroy your vehicle, destroy your reputation, your job.

we’ve seen it over and over again, which is why most of us save our ‘statements’ for the voting booth.

and shame on Brad Pitt. but during Bush’s first term i stopped watching anything Pitt (& Aniston) was involved in when i read a snippet about the Bush Twins interning (at a Hollywood agent office?) when Brad & Jen passed them in the hall, they called out something derogatory to the girls. yeah, nice people – not.

Why would Brad fame the flames of a topic that will blow away in a week? If he started blabbing to the media like Anne wants him to , it would just encourage some left-wing tree-hugging Charles Manson -loving Wacko to do serious harm to his Mother . This is a stupid article .
